Genora Covington, 16, at the County Courthouse in Monroe, N.C., protesting segregation at public swimming pools.
New ordinances to intimidate demonstrators required signs to be small and to stand 15 feet apart in single file with no more than 10 people. A white mob attacked them later that day.

Picketing the Courthouse, Monroe, North Carolina, August 26, 1961 Gelatin silver print (photograph) In North Carolina and other Southern states, minorities have long fought for legal protection against discrimination. Here Genora Covington, 16 years old, stands outside the Union County Courthouse in Monroe, N.C., to protest racial segregation at public swimming pools. She complies with new local ordinances designed to intimidate demonstrators, which required signs to be no wider than 24 inches and forced picketers to stand 15 feet apart in a single-file line in groups of no more than 10. This distance made the protestors more vulnerable, and a white mob attacked them later that day. Freelance photographer Declan Haun took this image for the Charlotte Observer.

A U.S. citizen and student was violently detained by ICE near the school in Chicago

They want community members too afraid to resist out of fear that they might be next.

As ICE occupations worsen, communities have proven to be a lynchpin to resisting ICE. We must build up community solidarity.

Now compare this with the actions of those in power who claim to follow Mary’s son.

And this is why you can’t just palm any candidate off on Dem voters. When it comes to the Senate we all suffer.

Vet them.

Ignore all laws about altering historic properties ✅
Pave over Rose Garden for tacky Mar-A-Lardo Patio ✅
Demolish East Wing after lying that "It won't interfere with the current building. It'll be near it but not touching it" ✅
Build gaudy $250M Ballroom as public struggles financially ✅

I’m responding with a simple message to universities that send me contribution requests: Not a penny til you publicly announce you won’t sign the Trump compact. (The admin presented compact to 9 schools but has said all are welcome to join).
NO $ TO CAPITULATORS.
